EUREKA — A fifth suspect facing charges connected to a Metamora home invasion has been indicted in Woodford County.

Michael Parchman, 31, address unavailable, was indicted Feb. 6 by a Woodford County grand jury on charges of home invasion, aggravated battery and mob action in connection with an October incident.

Larry Edwards, Jacon Edwards, Michael Christerson and Dakota Bucher all face similar charges after being arrested in the vicinity of 121 N. Douglas St. in Metamora on Oct. 21 of last year.

Parchman was arrested after an investigation uncovered his involvement in the break-in and beating, which was connected to an earlier robbery, prosecutors say.

Authorities believe that Parchman entered the apartment with the other suspects looking for Cody Bernius, who faces armed robbery and weapons charges in Tazewell County for allegedly robbing Christerson at gunpoint on Oct. 21.

A second suspect, Kyle Knock, also faces an armed robbery charge in connection with the Washington incident.
